"The overall seal coat covered the driveway just fine. However my issue is with the hot crack sealing. I paid an additional $135 as per written agreement to seal cracks. I’m not sure how they pick and choose which cracks to seal. I was away for the weekend and when I returned I was highly disappointed to find that only some of the cracks were sealed and others which were quite obvious to me were not even addressed. I’m not an unreasonable person and obviously didn’t expect every single crack to be sealed but they certainly could have done a much better job. When I called to ask if Dave, presumably the owner, could stop by I was told by the secretary she would leave him the message. Several days went by and he never showed. I called back and she told me he was already here and everything was fine he didn’t k kw what I was talking about. I told her that seemed funny to me because I have security cameras and never saw him here. I called two more times for a total of 4 and never saw or spoke to Dave. If you are looking for a simple sealing job I suppose they do an adequate job. But if u need to get driveway cracks sealed look elsewhere. I definitely don’t feel I got $135 worth of cracks sealed and Mr Hunter didn’t seem very interested in coming out to look at the work his employees did."

"HORRIBLE!!! I will no longer use Angie’s list because of this job. We are selling our home so we needed help quickly, I paid Kyle to come out to my home to move rocks from one bed to 3 other beds and flatten the area to make it level. He was to completely flatten out the bed and spread the rocks evenly throughout the other beds and clean them so dirt isn’t all over the rocks. When they came I also asked if they wouldn’t mind doing a little edging around the area they were working with and they had no problem adding that. I left out of town and when I returned I had muddy grass with big patches missing from the machine they rented machine they used. They did NOT know what a edger was, they laid a tarp on the grass and sprayed the rocks with a pressure washer then ran over the wet grass with their machine! I had a mud slide. The rocks were not all moved the area was not flattened and when they edged they overly edged and left a huge open area of no rocks. The area we had edged was completely flattened from the machine they used now the mud runs into our other bed. It looks like a mud slide. I had pictures sent to me while I was gone. I called Kyle and He agreed to come back out to fix the grass and fix what needed to be fixed to finish the job he also apologized for the job his crew did. He understood it was a horrible job. he promised to come back out and all he did was sprinkle grass seed on the bald spots. I paid him in full while I was gone in good faith When I returned I told him the job was unfinished and my lawn was destroyed. I now have to hire another company to fix what his crew destroyed I called very upset I explained he did a lot of work so I will pay what he did do but I wanted to compensated a quarter of what I paid and he now forwards me to voicemail! Since my return and the phone call I had with him he has not returned my calls and I am sent to voicemail!!! I did not ask for a full refund considering the job was not done. I just asked for a little bit of compensation. Considering my yard is DESTROYED!!"

"My husband and I decided to expand our existing driveway to make room for his work truck and to give the kids more room to play. I called Brian to get a quote which he was able to go out immediately and call me with a quote. As with most major purchases, we got a few different quotes from a few other companies. Brian was right in the middle when it came to pricing. I have seen his work and was really impressed so I was excited to work with him. He told me that his schedule will allow him to get to us mid-September or early October which was great for us. He recently came over to the house and told me that he would be able to get me into his schedule the following week - which was amazing! When he and one of his guys came over to measure and spray paint my lawn (which is still there), I mentioned to him that we have received a price from another company that is $1,000 lower than him. As soon as I said that, his whole demeanor changed. Almost as if he was appalled that I got another quote. Mind you, I did not sign the contract. Brian told me that he would not budge on the pricing and he would not honor the contract that stated he would cut the curb - he would only expand the driveway. Later in the day, speaking with my husband about what Brian had told me about the layout of the driveway, my husband had more questions. I had asked if Brian could talk with my husband since I was the middle man. My husband called and spoke with Brian and told him that instead of him cutting the curb (which was listed in the contract), we would want to get a price for him redoing the entire driveway including the expansion. Brian told my husband he would pull the dimensions of the driveway and get back to him. The next day, Brian sends my husband a text message (not even a phone call) saying he has work to do in Columbus and his pricing would never beat the other company. He never gave us a chance to use his services. He got defensive about us getting a new company quote. He was very unprofessional by texting and not calling. I would NOT recommend him - regardless of his work."

Gravel or loose fill paving installs, spreads or scrapes FAQs

The depth of decomposed granite depends on the load the surface will support. For a vehicle driveway, install decomposed granite six inches deep. For pedestrian areas, use three inches, and for decorative surfaces, one inch will suffice. Heavier loads require thicker layers to ensure stability, drainage, and longevity, while lighter uses can maintain their appearance with less material.

One cubic yard of decomposed granite covers 54 square feet when laid to a six-inch depth. This conversion is derived by dividing the volume in cubic feet by the depth in feet. The calculation is fundamental for project planning because it converts three-dimensional volume into the two-dimensional area of coverage. Due to potential settling and compaction after installation, pros recommend an extra 15% to ensure the installed layer meets precise design requirements and maintains robust stability over time.

Determining whether a base layer is necessary for decomposed granite installation requires careful assessment of your project needs. A base layer of crushed rock or gravel provides essential support, improved drainage, and enhanced stability. Utilizing a solid base improves the overall structure by absorbing weight, reducing erosion, and extending the life of the surface. Additionally, a properly compacted base layer minimizes shifting and settling, ensuring that the decomposed granite remains evenly distributed and effective over time.
